I think this is a very nice example of portraiture. The subject is very crisp and cleanly defined from the background. I think the pristineness (is that a word?) of her outfit really contrasts nicely with the dark, rough dirt of the rocks too. She has a lovely smile on her face and that helps give the image a feeling of intimacy. While I do think this is a very well done portrait technically I don't find much in the way of Zen in it. Zen is of course a personal thing so it's likely to be different for everyone. I gave a 5 for its technical merits and would've scored it higher if I could sense the Zen.
Nice portrait. This is only my opinion, but I wish her head wasn't at the same level as the rocks. Maybe you could have gotten a little higher or lower. She is very pretty.
A camera in a photograph to me, Is like seeing the edges of a set in a movie; it sticks out. Now, don't get me wrong; this is a terrific photo of a photographer; as beautiful as Minnie Driver overlooking Galway bay with her hair back and skirt on for maximum trouble traversing rocky beach. Still pretty nice;
